CAPTAIN VYOM - Desi Star Trek?

Captain Vyom follows the story of well.. Captain Vyom (Milind Soman) and his comrades in their escapades across the universe. Sounds like Star Trek there, doesn’t it? It is. Now let us sprinkle a little bit of Star Wars, please?
And bam! What do we have? A Yoda like Tom Alter who plays Vishwapramukh and of course, Captain Vyom- the protagonist- is the villain’s progeny! Yes, he is the grandson of the world’s most evil person- ruler of Parajeev, the parasite, the alien race from thirteenth dimension. 
Rahul Bose plays one of the super-villains in the show. It was created by Ketan Mehta- the man who gave us Mangal Pandey!


Its our own Indian Star Trek, I am sure such series would raise some curiosity in children about space travel.

I think it was the best India has produced in this genre till date.
A complete story which wasn't over stretched. Decent acting. Considering that time, quite good special effects and background score.

But this series seem to be non-existent.
Even a Google search yields no signs!
Not available to buy, Not on torrents, not in any store, nowhere and not even a single clip on YouTube!
